Details of Spring Yard Waste Pickup to be held this week (March 14 – 18)

PRESS RELEASE

DATE:          February 16, 2022

FROM:        CITY OF ST. CLAIRSVILLE

SUBJECT:    Spring Yard Waste Pickup

RELEASE:  FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

City of St. Clairsville’s Utility Crews will pick up YARD WASTE ONLY on five (5) days in March:  Monday, March 14 through Friday, March 18.  Yard waste includes small tree and/or shrub branches which have naturally fallen over the winter months, yard trimmings, garden waste, and leaves ONLY.

Due to the recent ice storm and volume of debris which the City expects residents to have for disposal, residents should place any limbs, branches, or twigs of less than one inch diameter in bags for more efficient handling by the crews.  All bagged yard waste must be in paper lawn and leaf bags (not plastic) since these bags can be composted easily.  Many local stores carry the required paper lawn and leaf bags.

Residents are advised that YARD WASTE ONLY must be placed near the curb but NOT on the sidewalk or City streets.

The yard waste collections will be organized by ward, beginning with Ward 1 on Monday, Ward 2 on Tuesday, Ward 3 on Wednesday, and Ward 4 on Thursday.

To arrange for any collection which might be needed on the final day, Friday, March 18, or ask questions in general about this service, please contact 740-695-1324 or 740-695-0156.  Thank you.
